Model found dead in drain

24 November 2013

SEREMBAN: The woman who was found dead in a drain in Taman Seruling Jaya, Labu, here, on Friday has been identified as Cheok Hui Min, a part-time model in Kuala Lumpur.

The 22-year-old, from Ampang, had also participated in a beauty pageant organised by a Chinese daily here earlier this year.

The victim's father, who requested anonymity, said he spoke to his youngest daughter last week.

He said after his divorce, Cheok lived with his ex-wife in Ampang, while he stayed in Lukut, Port Dickson.

"I rushed to Tuanku Jaafar Hospital after police contacted me on Friday. I believe my daughter was killed somewhere else before her body was thrown into the drain.

"The police did not find any identification card and her purse was nowhere to be found at the scene."

Cheok was found in a drain by a couple who were jogging in the area at 7.30am. Based on the bruises on her neck and body, it is believed that she was choked before being thrown into the drain.

Seremban police chief Assistant Commissioner Zainal Abu confirmed the case and said police were waiting for a post-mortem report to determine the cause of death.

Guard dies from injuries after week-long coma

December 12, 2013

KUALA LUMPUR: A security guard, beaten by two Myanmar nationals who had picked mangoes from a tree outside his workplace in Hulu Klang, died after a week-long coma.

Mohd Raini Mohamed Junus, 52, was warde­d at Universiti Malaya Medical Centre after he was knocked unconscious in Jalan Sepadu at about 4.45pm on Dec 5.

He was said to have tried to stop the two foreigners from plucking the fruits from the tree, about 10m from where he worked.

Mohd Raini was unhappy with the two, who would pluck the mangoes in large quantities to sell them.

Accompanied by his nephew Mohd Khasrol Hasnan, 27, he told the duo off. However, the men started beating Mohd Raini and his nephe­w with sticks. Mohd Khasrol suffered a broken left arm but his uncle blacked out.

Mohd Raini died on Tuesday evening.

Brickfields OCPD Deputy Supt Aida Abdul Hamid said: “We have arrested a suspect.”

Victim’s siblings found dead

ALOR STAR (Dec 1, 2013): The two missing siblings of a 14-year-old girl, who was found dead on Saturday, were also found dead this afternoon.

Kedah police chief Datuk Ahmad Ibrahim told reporters that the remains of Nur Izzati Husna, 12, and Puteri Nurul Akma, aged three, were found by a group of anglers near a river at Kampung Padang Tani, Alor Semela at about 4pm.

He dismissed speculations that Noor Syafikah Nadia Rusdi, whose semi-nude body was discovered at a paddy field at Alor Senibong, about 12km from Alor Semela, had been raped and murdered.

"The post-mortem conducted on the teenager revealed no signs of rape or murder and that her death was due to drowning," he said.

Nevertheless, police would investigate the case under Section 302 of the Penal Code, he said.

According to Ahmad, the deaths of Nur Izzati Husna and Puteri Nurul Akma, who were fully clothed when found, could not be due to normal drowning as their bodies were found at separate locations at the river.

He said the post-mortem on them would be conducted as soon as possible.

In the report lodged by their mother, the victims had left their home at Jalan Datuk Kumbar on Friday at around 7.30pm on a motorcycle.

Ahmad said the motorcycle had been located, locked and in good condition at the Sekolah Kebangsaan Gelam bus stand. Police also found a pair of trousers near Nur Izzati's body. –Bernama

The woman who refused to be named, said prior to that the two of them had spent an enjoyable evening together.

“We were on the way back to my house and I was driving. I realised that there was a car tailgating us and before I could do anything, there was a loud bang.

“We stopped by the roadside and came out of the car to discuss with the driver of the car that had hit us,” she told reporters when met at the Hospital Sultan Ismail mortuary here yesterday.

However, she said, four men came out of the other car and started to shout at them and insisted that it was her fault.

“As we were arguing about the matter, I noticed two of the men walking towards my car, got into it and started to drive off,” she said.

Noticing that, Zhu rushed to the car’s front passenger seat and was seen struggling with one of the suspects in the moving vehicle.

“Within seconds, he was pushed out of the car onto the road while the suspects sped off in my car.

“I rushed to him but he was already lying there unconscious,” she said.

She said that a passer-by rushed Zhu to Hospital Sultan Ismail, where he slipped into a coma and was pronounced dead seven hours later.

Zhu’s son Liang Hui, 45, said that he was not surprised that his father had reacted that way to fight off the thieves.

“He always stood up for what he believed was right,” he said.

Stabbing frenzy shatters housing estate's calm

Published: Friday October 25, 2013 MYT 12:00:00 AM 

KUALA LUMPUR: The morning peace in Taman Melati here was shattered when a cigarette delivery man went on a stabbing spree, killing two people and injuring two others.

His 40 minutes of terror began at about 11.20am when the 26-year-old man went in his van to a kiosk at the Gombak Putra LRT terminal to deliver a shipment of cigarettes.

Without warning, he pulled out a rambo knife and stabbed the outlet proprietor Lau Siew Ling, 49, and her woman helper Sulianti Johari, 31.

He then got into his vehicle and drove towards Jalan Pertahanan which is parallel to the Melati LRT station less than 2km away, and rammed into another van.

When the owner of the van, Lee Kah Ghee, 48, got out to investigate, the man stabbed him several times and left him to die on the busy road.

The man then got back into his van and drove a few hundred metres before colliding with a car driven by a college student.

He got out and confronted the student Kwan Chun Tai, 25, and stabbed him. Kwan ran, trying to escape the crazed killer.

The man chased him, caught him and stabbed him to death in Jalan Tumbuhan.

City deputy CID chief Asst Comm Khairi Ahrasa said a crowd of onlookers cornered the man.

“He was disarmed, beaten up and detained until police arrived and arrested him.

“The man has been taken to the Kuala Lumpur Hospital for medical treatment and psychological evaluation,” he said.

He said the man was acting erratically when he was taken into custody.

“We believe he belongs to a cult, but have yet to verify this,” he added.

The bodies of the two dead have been taken to the same hospital for a post-mortem.

ACP Khairi said the case was being investigated under Section 302 and Section 326 of the Penal Code for murder and voluntarily causing hurt with dangerous weapons.

Those with information on the case should contact the police hotline 03-2115 9999 or go to the nearest police station.

Cosplay murder suspect: I don’t know why I did it

A photo of 15-year-old Ng Yuk Tim from her mother’s Facebook page.KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 23, 2013 — The man suspected of being the alleged killer of 15-year-old Ng Yuk Tim after a Cosplay date gone wrong was unable to offer an answer today for what is probably the one question on the minds of the girl’s bereaved mother and the public.

“I don’t know,” he replied to questions from reporters when he was brought by police to the Petaling Jaya Magistrates Court for a remand hearing.

Reporters had asked him “why did you do this?” to which the man could only offer a reply that is not likely to comfort the family of Ng.

Asked if he regretted his actions, he offered: “It’s too late for me to regret.”

The bespectacled homely-looking Ng’s body was found yesterday stuffed in a green suitcase in Shah Alam, following a date with a man to make a Cosplay uniform

The man is being remanded by police until October 29 to help investigations into the murder.

Yesterday’s discovery of the body followed the arrest of the 23-year-old man.

Ng was believed to have met the man at his home in Petaling Jaya to put together a Cosplay uniform.

The man is thought to have made sexual advances towards her, and she was struck by dumbbell and killed after she resisted.

Ng had left her Bandar Tun Razak home around 11am on Monday and travelled by LRT to Kelana Jaya to meet the man.

The 23-year-old man had been brought to the Petaling Jaya police district headquarters yesterday evening for questioning.

It is understood that the man had led police to the discovery of the body.

It is also said that he has confessed to trying to rape the girl before striking her with a dumbbell, killing her on the spot.

The man initially claimed that he had dropped her off at the Kelana Jaya LRT station at about 3.30pm.
